Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[BigOrangeVols]

Cuonzo may not be an elite coach but he is a pretty good coach

I wouldn't go that far. I'll at least say he recruits well. I think he's very average at best as a coach.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

If he gets a cam or dak caliber QB which he’s shown he can do...... they will make a playoff.

I thought Emory was supposed to be that...guess not. He is Mehlan for a reason...it doesn't matter how many points you put on the board when the other team scores more...

#40 started this crap on the onside kick with the taunting

No Emory was not ever that.

2 BOOOMSS!!!
Cade coming back is huge!

Kings of the offseason

Basketvols could be Top 4 next week.

UT first in the SEC and UK last-- who thought we'd ever see that?

I'm sure you've been around or heard about how Barnes & staff treat folks...as well as how Pruitt & staff treat folks.


Is the difference between them as big as I assume? I feel like Barnes is the type that's always willing to say hello and smile to any & everyone he runs into, regardless of their position. I get the vibe Pruitt's a bit of an a-hole though.

MS State/Tulsa game just had a mostly peaceful post game celebration.

My favorite was #13 on MS swinging a towel at a guy with a helmet on!

Bama-ND on in 20 minutes...I took Bama on the spread. If they don't win by 20+ I'd be surprised (so would ND I bet)...

Clemson-OSU not sure on that one but it could at least be a decent one.

You mean tma? Lol

 

[LA Vol]

Hiring a head coach is nothing but a total crapshoot. I have learned that much watching us and other schools like USC, Texas and Michigan flounder.

It's not nearly as easy as some think. It's high stakes poker, and the odds of getting a royal flush aren't good.

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

Good news for once. Cade back and Brooks signed. NOW lets get Jammie Robinson, Arik Gilbert maybe Jack Coan. Then get some assistants who can coach'em up. GO Vols!!

Please no I’m Coan. Talk about bad. We can do a lot better. Go get Hilinski.

Yep. Guarantee that was what that whole thing was about.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

To be fair, I went through every season he had at MSU and diagnosed their wins when his name came up. It goes much deeper than that, and you have to consider the context.

I have never said Mullen is a bad coach. He did very well at MSU, and I understand it traditionally has struggled in the SEC. But, I have always said that his strength is more development than recruiting, and that’s why Florida was a better gig for him. In addition, he’s had some culture issues at both places along with struggling to get over the top in some big games.

I also have a really good friend who is a MSU alum and booster, who has personally hosted Mullen. They obviously loved him as a coach, but they did get frustrated with his loyalty to some of his friend assistants. He also said Mrs. Mullen is the more normal of the two.

For the record..I have never said Mehlan was a bad coach either..in fact I have often stated that I think he is a good coach overall, I think Flurduh is the best place for him due to the sane reasons you mentioned. He better get a real defense or he is not going to last long down there.

 

[Vols4us]

Let's see if criminal charges are filed in the MSU/Tulsa mess. That was as dumb as it gets.

 

[LA Vol]

Will be ranked no.1 at the end of the season.

Hope so. Vols are due a F4 team.

 

[volatil]

What’s worse than a 3-7 team playing in a bowl game?

3-7 team shows their ass after the game

 

[drvenner]

I think Pruitt asked him to wait to try to get some positive vibes back.

 

[volbeast33]

Please no I’m Coan. Talk about bad. We can do a lot better. Go get Hilinski.

Just get someone who is not too pissed about sitting behind bailey

Go Gold hatters....















Tomorrow.

#40 started this crap on the onside kick with the taunting

Started pregame and bubbled the whole time, finally blew up after the game was over.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Ranking top tier coaches and possible scenarios on who would do a good job here.. Gonna be a long offseason.

It's going to be hell.

 

[Leeleesteeth]

Please no I’m Coan. Talk about bad. We can do a lot better. Go get Hilinski.

I think you're right. Did more research on Coan. I'd put Hilinski ahead of him also.

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

Go get the best QB possible. Period. Let them duke it out for starting QB. Don’t take a bad QB just for depth and waste a scholarship.

 

[Dudley Smith]

Tomorrow.


*Tell Dick Clark, @TN-POSSUM said hi!

I was hoping he would tell us if Bama covers so I can go out and put a bet down

 

[TN-POSSUM]

Devo still a day ahead of us in the timestream

I bet Devo owns a sweet Delorean
